Visit us online at www.1stWorldLibrary.ORG - - BILLY BYRNE was a product of the streets and alleys of Chicago's great West Side. From Halsted to Robey, and from Grand Avenue to Lake Street there was scarce a bartender whom Billy knew not by his first name. And, in proportion to their number which was considerably less, he knew the patrolmen and plain clothes men equally as well, but not so pleasantly. His kindergarten education had commenced in an alley back of a feed-store. Here a gang of older boys and men were wont to congregate at such times as they had naught else to occupy their time, and as the bridewell was the only place in which they ever held a job for more than a day or two, they had considerable time to devote to congregating.

DOWNLOAD EBOOK →The Mucker Series is a collection of three Edgar Rice Burroughs adventures: The Mucker, The Return of the Mucker and The Oakdale Affair. This edition includes the original version image illustrations as well. In "The Mucker", we're introduced to Billy Byrne, a tough guy from the slums of Chicago. Falsely accused of murder, Billy flees for San Francisco, only to get shanghaied by pirates. The pirates quickly put him to work helping to kidnap a wealthy young woman. But even that doesn't go as planned. Soon the pirates are shipwrecked among cannibals in the South Pacific, and Billy finds that he's not only the tough guy he thought he was-- he's in love with the heiress. Can he rescue her, and if he does, can he ever fit into her high society world? In "The Return of the Mucker", Billy is on the run again, this time to Mexico with his hobo friend Bridge. Billy finds work with a bandit general and Bridge at the ranch of a wealthy expatriate. The bandit has his sights on a bank to rob with Billy's expert criminal help. Bridge gets caught between his employer, his friendship with Billy, and his employers, none other than the lovely heiress and father from "The Mucker". With a civil war pending in Mexico, Billy and Bridge will have to face down the Mexican army and the bandits in order to get Billy's sweetheart safely back to the U.S. In "The Oakdale Affair", we follow further adventures of Bridge. Bridge finds himself sheltering from a storm with a mysterious thief. The pair rescues a young woman who's run afoul of her gangster boyfriend. It seems that everybody wants the loot that the theif stole, and somewhere out there is a kidnapped young woman who is the key to it all. Bridge will have a lot of juggling to do to keep gangsters, gypsies, and private detectives in line and solve the mystery at hand.

He is not chivalrous nor kind, and has only meager ethics, never giving evidence against a friend or leaving someone behind. He chooses a life of robbery and violence, disrespecting those who work for a living. He has a deep hatred for wealthy society. When falsely accused of murder, Billy flees to San Francisco and is shanghaied aboard a ship. The ship's secret mission is to hijack a millionaire's daughter, Barbara Harding, for ransom. After a terrible storm, the ship is damaged and Billy rescues Barbara. He protects her from the jungle for weeks and they fall in love._x000D_ In The Return of a Mucker Billy goes back to his old Chicago haunts intending to clear his name. His time with Barbara imbued him with faith in the law and justice. However, he soon realizes that the system is more interested in finding someone guilty than in finding the guilty party. Awaiting the verdict, he reads that Barbara and Mallory are about to marry. _x000D_ The Oakdale Affair features the Return of The Mucker sidekick, Bridge. In the home of Jonas Prim, president of an Oakdale bank, a thief makes off with a servant's clothing and valuables belonging to Prim's daughter Abigail.

Two of the hobos attempt to murder the newcomer for the loot, who shoots at one and flees._x000D_ Edgar Rice Burroughs (1875-1950) was an American writer best known for his creations of the jungle hero Tarzan and the heroic Mars adventurer John Carter, although he produced works in many genres.

DOWNLOAD EBOOK →When a beautiful princess refuses to marry the prince her father has chosen, her father is furious and locks her in a tower. She has seven long years of solitude to think about her insolence. But the princess is not entirely alone - she has her maid, Dashti. Petulant and spoilt, the princess eats the food in their meagre store as if she were still at court, and Dashti soon realises they must either escape or slowly starve. But during their captivity, resourceful Dashti discovers that there is something far more sinister behind her princess's fears of marrying the prince, and when they do break free from the tower, they find a land laid to waste and the kingdom destroyed. They were safe in the tower, now they are at the mercy of the evil prince with a terrible secret. Thrilling, captivating, and a masterful example of storytelling at its best. The princess's maid is a feisty and thoroughly modern heroine, in this wonderfully timeless story.
